Loving yourself
Each time I watch a movie or a drama series, I try to look into some kind of value.To some it is just light and cutie, and of course, it is a teen story. It is about first love. It is about all the insecurities that goes with growing up as a teen.
The FL is cute even with her Freezy hair, and just what Yun-Seok said, he likes her the way she is. I believe that there are plenty of adults who are still insecure in the way they look - hair, height, weight, complexion and many other things. The girl who tries to catch someone else's attention by changing herself eventually fall for someone else.
I only watched this to take a break from the other series that require much energy to process. Sometimes we need this kind of a break. And it is good that it ended in a happy note.

it's cute
I'll admit, I was drawn to watch this film because of the hype. No need to beat around the bush, it didn’t live up to my expectations. The acting is fine, but the storytelling is the real issue. honestly, I can't blame the audience. The hype probably came from the lack of strong k-dramas/k-films this year. it reminded me of the c-19 era when everyone was suddenly releasing good music, simply because people were hungry for something to hold on to. However, I’m not the kind of person who can survive on crumbs; I need a full meal. This plot has been done hundreds times in other EA films, (especially in China and Japan), where seems to be a strange obsession with killing off characters in romance films. Within the first ten minutes, I guessed the entire story arc, and I haven’t done that in a while.Was this review helpful to you?

Wholesome!
The best part of this film was the friends group, whom are literally the definition of "ride or die". Every scene with the entire group was always fun, wholesome and even endearing. There's another good point: a surprising cameo from two big actors that I would have never expected to show up in this film. Ever.Apart from that, the story is okay and well developed but there are certain points that remain unresolved by the end of the film that I would very much like to know since they are source of angst. Shin Eun Soo keeps growing as a leading lady and Gong Myung delivered, as per usual, but it was really hard to ignore he's a 31 year old man playing a high schooler. Especially, when the rest of the cast is in their early twenties.
This is a good movie to enjoy on a rainy day with some popcorn and just disconnect from the outside world.

No tangles!
This was a refreshing break from some heavy dramas I've been watching lately. It is simple, short, and sweet. There's really nothing revolutionary about the story. It is a sweet coming-of-age love story wihich tries to show that you should and could be loved just as you are. In a society and culture obsessed with certain beauty standards, it is nice and a breath of fresh air to have something albeit simple to remind us that there's more to beauty than what the eyes see.The show has no real complicated plotlines, it is a relaxing watch. It is light and a heartwarming watch. I recommend it if you have about 2 hours to kill and just want to have a break from long series, or heavy dramas.

A cute movie but it was just okay.
Kind of movie that can heal the audience!The old youth story about a stereotype that a girl who has curly hair is not pretty and doesn't deserve a percent of love. Well, even after all the girl caught someone's heart by her kindness.
The plot was good enough, but it wasn't what I imagined and shown from the trailer. I thought Park Se-ri would keep fighting to win her crush's heart, but everything stopped halfway through the story. The same goes for the love story between Park Se-ri and Han Yun-seok. The ending of the story seems like ended so hastily, and oddly enough, there was no awkwardness between Park Se-ri and Han Yun-seok after they were apart for not in a short time. They didn't clarify what happened to each other, especially Han Yun-seok who didn't come back to Busan after he visited her mom in Seoul.
But overall, the movie heals me & was cute to watch!♡
The casts acted very well✧

Love Untangled Review - ZyKuu
"His heart strings were more tangled than her hair" - This story was very innocent and cute. The film follows the main lead Park Se-ri is a determined teenager on a mission to untangle her natural curly hair. With hopes of having straight hair she aims to impress her crush Kim-hyun. The other main lead is Han Yun-seok whom is a transfer student. Both main leads did well in their role and excelled during the emotional moments. They also had good chemistry with one another. Se-ri is a person who trusts her gut feeling and is very attentive. She displayed her acting range yet again as she continues to impress me. Yun-seok was a very quiet but interesting character whom spoke a lot through his actions. Kim-hyun was a cool character with minimal screen time, and amongst Se-ri's friend group, Sung-rae is who stood out the most as he was the comedic focal point throughout. The OST matched the theme and setting of the film to a tee. I loved the colours of the film, it was very vibrant and pleasing to watch. Although the majority of the film follows Se-ri on her quest for love, there was a segment revolving around domestic violence that I wish topic was explored more. To me that would have added more depth and value to the film's overall plot. In conclusion, this film is great and I would definitely recommend it to all audiences.Was this review helpful to you?
Super cute slow paced movie
Sometimes there are just shows that catch you by surprise. This was one. I have been consuming a lot of shows from China and Japan these last few months. Utterly fed up of the half hearted efforts coming out of Korea. Too artsy, or too sad or too disappointing. Just want some nice happy fun romance, a show with some spirit.So I really didn’t want to start this one but decided to give it a go. I was hooked within the first 15 min. Even for a movie, this show had enough slow pacing it felt authentic in the relationship building amongst the leads, and though nothing significant happens for a while there is enough to know they are starting to mean something to each other.
The romance is quiet and sweet, and not without a bump or two - but a joyous watch. Have been to Korea many times, but this summer I finally made it to Busan, and I am so glad I did. It didn’t feel as epic as Seoul does, but of the places I did go, there were a few that stood out as special to me. Seeing them in this show was icing on the cake.
Clearly there are several people who could care less about this movie. Its a shame. Its an absolute gem.

Cute as…
My review is going to be short and sweet. I have said this often - not enough nice movies or dramas are made these days. Love Untangled is just that - a nice old style movie, which we need more of.Even though it is a sweet movie, there are a couple of underlying themes that do bubble through but don’t overwhelm the flavour of the movie - and that is a good thing.
It was nice watching such supportive friendships, loving families and a setting in Busan. The coffee shop upstairs we have seen in recent dramas.
Ignore the nay sayers here. Embrace this movie for what it is - a gentle reminder of what’s nice in the world.

its simple, but cute
I watched It because i was a bit bored, but It surprised me, i liked It more than i had expected.i loved it, there was no conflict between friends or other characters.
I loved how the other curly girlie helped the fl and told her about the place where she went to straigthen her hair, all her Friends helped her in all the things to confess to the boy she had a Crush on, and he was a nice boy too and respected her.
All the charaters are green flags, It is a cute romance, and it gave us the reason that you dont need to change anything about you so others can love you. It is a simple movie, but the meaning is touching.

Cha Woo Min ?
The movie came out. I got the energy I was expecting. The movie turned out just the way I thought it would, and honestly, I enjoyed it as much as I hoped I would. If you want to have a good time, I definitely recommend watching it.CHA WOO MIN was, once again, really amazing. Actually, he was in the second male lead role, but despite that, he didn’t appear much. When I first learned he was the second male lead, I thought his role might be bigger, but it was actually limited. I think the amount of screen time he got was just right. He portrayed Kim Hyeon really well. From the script, I couldn’t quite understand Kim Hyeon’s feelings. Did he really love Se-ri? That’s something I couldn’t figure out.
The film had a strong drama vibe. Actually, you could already tell that from the poster. I liked that it felt this way because I don’t usually watch this kind of drama, but since it was a movie, you can start and finish it quickly, which I enjoy. In my opinion, the biggest flaw of the movie was that even though it was set in 1999, it didn’t carry that atmosphere at all. You couldn’t even tell from the phones; I only realized when they showed the year in the film, and I was honestly surprised. Since I wasn’t expecting the movie to be too serious, I just wanted to watch it for fun, and I really enjoyed it. If you want to clear your head, it’s worth watching. I watched it for Woo Min, and I came for him. Enjoy watching!
